Wood Island is a 35-acre island off the coast of Biddeford, Maine at the mouth of the Saco River. The lighthouse, which is coming up on its bicentennial anniversary, has been cared for and restored by The Friends of the Wood Island Lighthouse.

10 Things to do in Kennebunkport,

I had the lovely occasion to be in Kennebunkport and had a fun meal at Dock Square and cruised around town. I decided to see the Arundel Barn Playhouse of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" - a show that I have not seen for some time. I was so pleasantly impressed with this production. It captured the simplicity of the story and delivered the different styles of music with great ease. Of particular note was the lovely young woman who played the Narrator - what a superb voice. I hope to return to Kennebunkport later this summer and I look forward to taking in their other shows. Thank you to Maine Stay Inn for putting this theater on their list of one of the 10 best things to do in Kennebunkport.
